THE HOMES OF ENGLAND,

Bellows wrote to me about. which chron-
icled half a dozen reigns by various archi-
tectural marks as exactly as if it had
been an official register. "The stately
homes of England" as we see them at
Wilton and Longford Castle, are not more
admirable in their splendors than ''the
blessed homes of England" in their modest
beauty. Everywhere II may see here
old parsonages by the side of i~vy-lnantled
churches, and the comfortable mansions
where generations of country squires
have lived in peace, while their sons have
gone forth to fight England's battles and
carry her flags of war and IN all

hardly be said to have such a possession
as a family home. We encamp-not under
canvas, but in fabrics of wood or more
lasting materials, which are pulled down
after a brief occupancy by the builders,
and possibly their children, or are modern

would never recognize their old habita-
tions.-7Oliver Wendell Holmes in the At

volumes of Hansard, and was assured
that the speeches of all ''the braves" and
''voung men" were preserved therein for
centuries. what we say we say OBJ

HINT TO VERMONT FARMERS.

\ correspondent of the Rural YER
monter says:

milk, of popular brand. from the leading
grocery house of New York city, and |
proceeded to sample it. Fab it tasted of

some of YOU Vermont farmers club to-
gether and give Us condensed milk that

doubtless inferior to that produced in the
Rocky Mountains. But it ought TO be
better han any made in a fiat country.
Why is it that you denizens of the EFF

faculty of combination or organization
which obtains among the jewellers in the

Why should Maine have a monopoly of the

ORGANIZATION AND PRICES.


A correspondent of the National Live
stock Journal says: "Wool-growers cam
hot increase the price of wool by any
thing they can do, except to improve the
quality and condition of the fleece when
preparing it for market" Can't, Ell. Let
us see. We would not in any way dis
parage the chances for increase W inn
provement in the quality and condition
of the fleece; but he cannot be a careful
observer who says that this covers the
sum total of possibility in aiding the mar
ket. If any one thing is palmer than an
other in connection with the wool bust
ness this spring. it is that wool is now
|@sererdl cents per pound higher than it would
have been if growers had not been able
to do something outside of Improvement
lin the way of increasing prices. Nobody
can gainsav this. The efforts and pluck
of the producer are everywhere conceded
to be the foundation and support of the
present advancing markets.
And. by the way, in this lies a power
full argument for organization. There
are a half dozen other grounds, any one
of which is sufficient, upon which local
associations of w~ool-growers can rest;
but this alone is more than an apology
for their existence if there were no other.
We believe it is putting it mildly to say
that the existence of the average active
local organization has affected the local
market within the past month to the
amount of three cents per pound. III
deed. when we note the great consequent
advance in some localities we are inclined
to think this too low an estimate. The
action of the average organization affects
the value of from $4,000 to 100 1000 pounds
of wool and often more. That Is to say,
the wool of each section in which an as
ISOLATION is located is. at a minimum es-
innate. advanced in price this season
from $1,000 to $1,000; while instances
are not wanting in which organization
has been worth in hard cash $1,000 to
$4,000. OF course individual pluck, in
places where societies do not exist, has
demonstrated the ability of w~ool-growers
to improve prices: but the greatest aver
age increase and most substantial gain
has been made under the auspices of or
ganization.

OPERATING THE w

Take up the wear of the boxes by re-
moving the stutfing: if the journals have
too much play they cut fast, but if the
boxes fit too closely they will heat. The
thickness of a newspaper all around each
is sufficient play. Examine all the nuts,
and tighten any that are loose. \ loose
nut will cause the machine to wear or
break, and will lose off in the field, caus-
ing a veXatious delay at the least. If any
nut is very loose, place a leather washer
under it and sink the nut in. Assure
yourself that there is no weak place in
the whiffietrees; they always break at
the wrong moment, and may allow the
machine and your team to mire down in
a muddy spot. Mind the sickles. Every
mower should be provided with three
sickles, so that as sOon as one becomes
dulled another may be put in its place.
A dull sickle does ragged " cutting and
will increase the wear and draft of the
machine one-half. Observe that the
sickle-bar is not warped, and that the
points of the sections are in a perfectly
straight line. A section out of line will
wear fast and increase the draft. Try
the sections, and tighten any that are
loose; a loose section is apt to cause a
breakage, and a loose guard will produce
the same result. See that the tool-boS
contains claw-hammer, pincers, file, see
tions, rivets, bolts, wire and nails; the
lack of these will often compel a TRIP
from the field to the Toulouse. If any

COOPERATIVE DAlRYlNG.

There is no question that intelligent
cooperative dairying can be made to pay
better than many other kinds of farming
in most sections in Vermont. The pc
culiar natural advantages of the State in
this department of farming ought to be
improved a hundred fold more than they
are at the present time. Vermont is
naturally a dairy State, and the remark
able success of most of the creameries
established in the State ought to be an
incentive to the establishment of many
more.
In regions of the country less favorable
to dairving than this State, the success of
creameries has been almost phenomenal.
especially in parts of Massachusetts, and
Connecticut. Dairying has made Elgin,
H., the most prosperous region of all
that State. aud its wealth has been accu-
mulated from the product of the COW. In
1872, the Elgin board of trade wa estab-
lished. and it has eXerted considerable
influence in making the prices on dairy
products in the whole country. The dairy
industry has been a grand, progressive,
enriching one, aiding Elgin people to tide
over financial panics in better condition
by far than otherwise could have been
done. the same amount o fenergy and cap
ital had been investedin any other branch
of agriculture. Every cross-road has
its creamery and every creamery its cheese
factory. Every farmer raises milk, which
musteither be made into butter and cheese,
or sent to the city. The whole energy of
the farming community. for miles around
the city, is expended upon milk.
The same is true of western New
York. Years ago, the farmers were
trying to make a living, growing grain.
1t was uphill business. The early frost
killed their corn. and the chinch bugs
destroyed their wheat. Oats were worth
but twenty-five and thirty cents Il bushel,
and were not worth the raising, and. as
the farmer grew older. he grew poorer.
But at last the dairy idea got abroad. and
III ltH Il " iit INV ~ N"F "'NINN'
ninety-and-nine of all the farmers of
Chautauqua county were rich. Big frame
and brick houses and barns took the
places of the cabins and novels, and silk
dresses and broadcloth took the place of
calico and butternut jeans"
There are fifty towns in Vermont where
cooperative dairying might be made a
complete success. and the financial tide
which, in many instances. is slowly set
ting against the farmers might be turned,
and be made to flow greatly to their adj
vantage. The farmers of the State should
discuss this matter freely, and inform
themselves of the advantages and disad-
vantages of the different systems of dali
rying. so as to avail themselves of that
which will bring them the largest pecu-
mary reward Rural Nermonter.

few minutes for the first half hour, driv-
ing slowly it is also well to use coal-oil
occasionally on the track of the sickle, to
clear off the gum that settles from the
grass. The machine oil sold is often poor
stuff, to which it is necessary to add cas-
tor oil to give it body. If too much of
the latter is used, however, it will gum.
We haye never used anything that gave
better satisfaction than lard (unsalted)
with castor oil to give it a little body.
If the lard is taken to the field hot in the
morning, the sun will keep it liquefied

How to Mail silver.

a clever way to send silver through
the mail is to put it in a card or straw
board. Take a strip the size of the en-

silver will just fit. Then on each side
paste paper to keep the money in place.
